"Collegiana" lyrics
"Collegiana"
On the campus they try to vamp us
With anything new, or anything blue
My diploma is now in coma
My studying too – it's pretty near through
I found a new Collegiate hop
I dance till I drop and I'll never stop
If you want to see what is getting me
I'll tell you how to do
Collegiana, see how it's done
It's easy as pi and lots of fun
You never have to study
This muddy water hop
Miss Polyanna never was glad
Until she grabbed an undergrad
And this Collegiana, it never was a flop
Honor students and every pedagogue
All go to bed eight o'clock at night
Two step, new step
You'll get along with me
You'll get a new degree dancing
You're going to burn up
Turn up your heel
Carry your books, you'll begin to feel
You know the new
Hosanna Collegiana Reel
Collegiana started at Yale
Spread out to Princeton
Blazed a trail
It murdered them at Harvard
And there, the whole Penn State
Army, Navy, and Notre Dame
Started to dance and spread the fame
Of this Collegiana
'Cause it was something great
Cornell, Dartmouth and Pennsylvania
All got the mania – and how
How's that refined, behind step to it
There's lots of steps to it, hear me

David Allan Coe - "Tennessee Whiskey" I used to spend my nights in a bar room
Liquor was the only love I've known
But you rescued me from reaching for the bottom
And brought me back from being too far gone
You're as smooth as Tennessee...
Brooks & Dunn - "Neon Moon" When the sun goes down
On my side of town
That lonesome feeling
Comes to my door
The whole world turns blue
There's a rundown bar
Cross the railroad tracks
I've got a table for two
Way in the back...
Dwight Yoakam - "Fast As You" Maybe someday I'll be strong
Maybe it won't be long
I'll be the one who's tough, yeah
You'll be the one who's got it rough
It won't be long
And maybe I'll be real strong
Maybe I'll do things right...
Kathy Mattea - "455 Rocket" Mr. Smith had an Oldsmobile
Baby blue with them wire wheels
I took her home the day that she was advertised
He said she leaked when it would rain
Sounded like an aeroplane
But I knew she was jewel in...
Dan Seals - "God Must Be A Cowboy" A campfire, some coffee
From a tin cup in my hand
Sure warms the fingers when it's cold...
aplayin' an old guitar
A friend I understand
Sure smoothes the wrinkles in my soul...
Asleepin' in the...
